The Founding Fathers are Bruno Martin�s and Jonah Landa, two wealthy world leaders, that have left the United States to branch off to start their own nation. Their dreams of creating this country was to make a free based system where people choose their own decisions in life. Anyone can do what they please as long as it isn�t inappropriate to anyone in the society. Bruno Martins and Jonah Landa constantly watch over Martin�s Landa to make sure everyone is happy. The Founding Fathers have worked very hard to keep this country stable, and they will not rest to lose any confrontation from any rival countries.
When Martin�s has been at war with Russia in 2012, the country wouldn�t ever give up their land. Russia and other rival countries have tried to take the country�s wealth and prosperity, but they never seem to win. Martin�s Landa has a very powerful militia and is constantly training every day just in case a confrontation comes up.
